Jacksonville Jaguars Wiretap

With Tuesday's elections, 10 NFL teams play in a state where marijuana has been legalized medically or recreationally.

California and Massachusetts joined Washington and Colorado as states where marijuana can be consumed for any purpose. If the Raiders relocate to Las Vegas, that won't change as Nevada has legalized marijuana for recreational purposes.

Florida is one of various states to legalize marijuana for medicinal purposes.

The NFL previously justified their ongoing ban because federal law considers marijuana as a controlled substance.

The 49ers, Raiders, Rams, Chargers and Patriots joined the Seahawks, Broncos, Jaguars, Dolphins and Buccaneers.

Quarterbacks coach Nathaniel Hackett will take over playcalling duties. He previously served as the offensive coordinator with Buffalo in 2013-14 under head coach Doug Marrone, who is now the Jaguars' offensive line coach.

"Greg was a tremendous asset and always put all of his effort in doing everything he can to help in his players' improvement," Gus Bradley said in a statement. "He did some great things with our offense over the past two seasons, and for that, we are very appreciative.

"After a thorough evaluation, I came to the conclusion that with the direction that our offense was headed, it was best to make a change moving forward."

After the team's 36-22 loss to the Tennessee Titans on Thursday night, owner Shad Khan said, "Actions speak louder than words. Very little for me to say." He later added that Gus Bradley would not be fired.

A source close to the team confirmed that Bradley will not be fired. The coach is 14-41 in four seasons.

Blake Bortles deferred to the Jacksonville Jaguars' coaching staff, but made it clear on Wednesday that he's more comfortable when the team takes an up-tempo approach on offense.

The Jaguars adopted an up-tempo approach last Sunday against the Chicago Bears when trailing 13-0. From the 1:53 mark in the third quarter, Bortles was 13-of-18 passing for 187 yards with a touchdown. Prior to that he had been 7-of-15 passing for 84 yards with an interception.

"We were able to find a rhythm," Bortles said. "I thought we did a good job kind of handling the adversity."

When asked if he thought the Jaguars should switch to the approach sooner against the Oakland Raiders this weekend, Bortles deferred.

"I think that's something for [Greg Olson] and Gus [Bradley] to decide on," he said. "It's good to have it, have confidence in it and know we have it if we need it."

Bortles pointed out why a faster pace helps him.

"It's easier to find a rhythm, I believe," he said. "I feel comfortable in it. I feel good in it. Our offense feels good and comfortable in it and we do a good job moving the ball."

The Jacksonville Jaguars are 0-2 for the third time in four years and Blake Bortles is taking much of the blame, while defending Gus Bradley.

"He's an unbelievable head coach, and we take full responsibility in everything that we've done," Bortles said. "I as a quarterback haven't played well in two games, and our offense hasn't played well in two games. For anything to change, I'm going to have to play better."

Chris Ivory was released from a local Jacksonville hospital on Tuesday, but his status for Sunday's game against the San Diego Chargers remains uncertain.

Ivory had been hospitalized since Sunday morning for what the team said was a general medical condition. He had been limited in practice last week with a calf injury, but the reason for his hospitalization was unrelated.

The running back signed a five-year, $32 million contract with the Jaguars in March.

Chris Ivory remains hospitalized with a general medical issue, the Jacksonville Jaguars have announced.

Ivory was surprisingly inactive on Sunday after he was admitted to the hospital. The Jaguars didn't specify the issue.

"I talked to him before [we went to the hospital] and I talked to him afterward," Gus Bradley said. "He was down, obviously, not being able to play in the game and afterward. He just wants to get better."

The Jacksonville Jaguars aren't holding back Dante Fowler, who is returning from a torn ACL that ruined his rookie season.

The young defensive end has been a full go in training camp.

"I think you are seeing him. We are not holding him back right now," Gus Bradley said. "I think the challenge for us is how long can he play at that level. Can he do that 70 plays? Can he do that 50 plays? ... So that is the challenge for him, but I have been impressed with him."
